    I keep saying I'm too old for this... stuff (I want to say something else but I'll be called a wanker. ) but somehow I decided to do it anyway. (Would you mind defining "best" and "worst" in your opinion?)

    Oh come on now, let's not get ahead. We haven't gotten to insanity defenses yet.

    You will know best and worst when you truly understand The Rule Against Perpetuities and The Rule in Shelly's Case.

    Will I ever truly understand any of it, or just enough to pass my exams and the bar eventually?

    If you want to be a good lawyer, you have to truly understand the legal concepts, not just get by. All law is contracts, in one form or another. Learn contracts well.

    I meant in that change seems to be pretty standard in interpretation causing the need for new statutes, laws, rules, etc.

    I have contracts now. It's not that I dislike it, but it seems to be SO much more work than the other classes. Sheer volume of reading is beyond daunting.

    Edit: I'm too old for this = I'm insane. (Though I am enjoying being back in school immensely.)

    If it wasn't for doing the work, and passing, I'd love to be back at Duke. Of course, with my attitude, I'd have to go 8 miles WSW to find classes I could pass! So I think I'll just take a pass...
    Ozzie, your paradigm of optimism!

    I'll give you a B+ and you don't even have to show up for the next Brunchgate but I know you will.

    See, proving what I said. You and Devildeac have a classic contract. Offer, acceptance and consideration. Life is good.

    One of life's greatest pleasures - getting a random text from my niece saying she can't wait for me to come visit! I love my family!

    Cannot believe that Christmas trees are already out in the stores. We have not even hit Halloween!

    Those are the artificial ones, counselor.

    But you could always purchase one and hang M&Ms or Reese's PB cups on them for your trick or treat monsters next month.

    Proving once again that Hallmark is Satan's handmaiden.

    But I mean that in a positive way.
